Our Take
Fine Young Cannibals' "The Raw & The Cooked" is a banger of an album, serving up a delicious blend of funky beats, soulful vocals, and infectious hooks that will have you grooving from start to finish. Released in 1988, this iconic record showcases the band at the height of their powers, effortlessly blending pop, soul, and dance influences to create a sound that is as fresh and exciting today as it was over 30 years ago. The album kicks off with the infectious hit single "She Drives Me Crazy," a funky slice of pop perfection that showcases lead singer Roland Gift's soulful vocals and the band's tight musical chemistry. Tracks like "Good Thing" and "I'm Not the Man I Used to Be" continue the party vibes, with catchy hooks and toe-tapping rhythms that will have you hitting repeat over and over again. But it's not all about the dance floor bangers - the band also shows their softer side on tracks like "Don't Look Back" and "As Hard as It Is," with heartfelt lyrics and emotive vocals that tug at the heartstrings. Overall, Fine Young Cannibals' "The Raw & The Cooked" is a timeless classic that still sounds fresh and exciting after all these years. So grab your dancing shoes, crank up the volume, and get ready to groove to some of the best pop music the 80s had to offer. This album is a certified bop, and one that definitely deserves a spot in your music collection.
